DefenseReview (DR) always enjoys seeing new high-quality 4179 STANAG 30-round (standard capacity) and 40+-round (high-capacity) AR mags being developed and introduced at shows, so we were happy to get to see a prototype Mission First Tactical MFT SCPM556 Standard-Capacity Polymer Mag at SHOT Show 2014. The MFT SCPM556 is a polymer 30-round 5.56mm NATO (5.56x45mm NATO)/.223 Rem./300 AAC Blackout (300BLK) AR-15 magazine with a stipple-texurized (i.e., stippling) outer surface and ribs/ribbing. On the production-model MFT mag, the ribs will be front ribs.

According to MFT rep David Edelman, the MFT SCPM556 Standard-Capacity Polymer Magazine will also sport a 4-way self-lubricating silicone anti-tilt follower with three (3) points of contact, a stainless steel magazine spring/action spring, a drainage plug and safety stop (for AD’s) on the magazine’s base plate/floor plate.
